This lining thusconstitutes a kind of web the cables c. of which can vbe arrangedradially from the center to the' circumference, las shown in thedrawing.

Over the lining there is placed a chrome.

leather casing li reinforced at its upper part by means of aleather band2'. The Casing and the band are connected by means of nonskidding rivetsj. Finally, other leather bands lc separate the lining from the rivetsand give, in virtue. o their shape, a flat tread. l

Claims:

l. A pnueinatic tire comprising an inner tube, a pair of rings adaptedto encircle the rini, a metallic cable engaging the rings al ternately,the slack of the cable encircling theinner tube, means for securing thecoils of lthe cable together, and .a covering'on 'bot-h sides of saidcoils, and encircling the rings.

2. A pneumatic tire comprisingan inner tube, a .par'ot' ringsv adaptedto encircle the rini, and a plurality of flexible'metallic coilsencircling the tube, and arranged in parallelism with each other, th'eend of the coils engagiiig the rings, a covering for both faces of thecoils', yand means for securing the coils in spaced relation. i

3. A pneumatic tire comprising a pair of rings adapted to encircle therim, a metallic cable engaging the rings alternately, the slack of thecable encircling the inner tube and a covering for the cable.
